Hi everyone.

Firstly i want to apologize for my bad english.
May i know whether i can use this sensor without its controller?

For example i want to use this sensor to trigger on a LED. This sensor comes with 2 wires.
In controller i found that this 2 wires will be connected to GND. I'm confusing about it.
Any helper pls? Thanks.

You can get a controller for these for a few bucks more that will be much more useful than just the sensors.

Those 'sensors' are just raw ultrasonic pizo elements which are pretty useless with out low level electronic needed to turn them into ultrasonic transmitter/receiver sensors. So the proper 'controller' is required to be able to utilize them.
